PLANES OF MOVEMENT
The plane that divides the body into superior and inferior portions
Horizontal Plane
'Proximal' and 'distal' are directional terms used in reference to:
The root of the limb
This is the process of turning a body part face-down.
Supination
Name three (3) key functions of the skeletal system.
(1) Support
(2) Protection
(3) Movement
(4) Blood cell production
(5) Storage
Ligaments connect ___________ to __________.
Bone to Bone
The plane that divides the body into anterior and posterior portions
Frontal Plane
The thumb is _______ to the ring finger.
Lateral
This occurs when the anterior surface of a limb is turned outward and away from the midline of the body:
External Rotation
These are the five types of bone in the body.
(1) Long
(2) Short
(3) Irregular
(4) Flat
(5) Sesamoid
Tendons connect ___________ to __________.
Muscle to Bone
The plane that divides the body into right and left portions
Sagittal Plane
This term refers to both the posterior aspect of hand and the top aspect of foot.
Dorsal
These two movements occur when you (1) move a body segment away from the median plane/midline OR (2) when you return a body segment back toward the median plane/midline.
(1) Abduction
(2) Adduction
Name three (3) irregular bones in the body.
Ischium, pubis, sacrum, coccyx, vertebrae, mandible
These are the three (3) types of joints.
(1) Fibrous
(2) Cartilaginous
(3) Synovial
A spiral in the torso occurs on this movement plane:
Horizontal Plane
The ilium is ________ and ________ to the sternum.
Flexion means to ________ the joint and extension means to ________ the joint. Both occur on the ________ movement plane.
(1) Bend
(2) Straighten
(3) Sagittal
What is a tubercle?
Round protrusion on a bone that connects to muscle
This is the definition of a synovial joint.
Adjacent bones indirectly connected via joint cavity; enclosed by a fibrous capsule lined with synovial membrane
Jumping jacks, side lunges, and lateral tilts all occur on this movement plane:
Frontal Plane
The term 'palmar' refers to:
The anterior aspect of the hand.
Circumduction means this and combines these four basic movements:
Circular movement of a limb (one end of the body segment makes a circle while the other end stays stationary)
It combines:
Flexion
Abduction
Extension
Adduction
What and where are the periosteum and endosteum?
(1) Periosteum: thin membrane, full of blood vessels and nerves on the very outer layer of compact bone
(2) Endosteum: similar to periosteum; on the very inner layer of compact bone in a long bone
These are the six (6) types of synovial joints.
(1) Hinge
(2) Pivot
(3) Condyloid/Ellipsoid
(4) Saddle
(5) Ball-and-Socket
(6) Gliding
